I need help deciding on a colour to paint my living room. My floor is birch hardwood, my tables are maple, and my couches are chocolate leather. I just ordered a chair in this fabric, but the sample at the store had a lot more green dots.

My favorite paint is the right one, but I love the names of the middle ones. Napa Valley and Cabbage Patch. Great paint names.

I am also open to any other suggestions, but would like to stay in the green family.

I still buy cds. It is me and a bunch of 45 year old men at HMV. HA! I am not against downloading, but I suck at backing up my hard drive. I have lost a lot of music over the years, because a hard drive died. It isn't that I have had bad luck with hard drives, they usually die because of my laziness. On my second last laptop the video card started to separate from the motherboard. Now a normal person would re-solder the card back on. I was too lazy, so I just used a huge ass woodworking clamp to keep it together. I was readjusting the clamp when I clamped the hard drive. Dead in seconds. Oops.

I am not one of those touchy-feely people, but that fact I am a vegetarian and I made this rack of lamb for Darren shows I care. It probably makes up for the time I almost did the Vulcan death grip when he tried to touch me in public. Say no to PDA!

I am not sure how much English he understands, but when I told him that if he was going to stay in the sun I would put sunscreen on his nose he went to the shade and gave me this look. I call this look his "go ahead and make my day" look.

Some American coins just showed up on my nightstand. This bothers me for the following reasons:
1. I am not a prostitute, so money shouldn't just show up on my nightstand.
2. I would like to think if I was a prostitute, I would earn more than metal money. Even more so in the US where they don't have loonies or toonies.
3. I haven't been to the US in a long, long time.

I went out to dinner last night with my iFriends. The company was great, but the food and service sucked. The trio of dips was stale pita pieces with three scoops of baby food. The different baby food was touching each other. Ugh! When I got home I ordered one of these bad boys. Pizza never disappoints me.

I love that my favorite pub has games that you can play. I envision us playing checkers after our meal and as we have another drink while we are waiting for the live music to start. Of course, this will never happen. Between facebook, twitter, my other online additions, and updating this blog, my evenings are more MacBooks and wifi, and less backgammon and cribbage.

I took this picture because we were power washing all this moss off the roof of our shed. I liked the moss as it was our version of a green roof, and I was going to comment how environmental I was without even trying. Once I downloaded the picture I realized how "odd" it looked.
